The latest evidence has revealed an interesting fact, that is, John Cena was not completely nude on the 2024 Oscars stage.
Contrary to previous assumptions, it has been revealed that Cena was not naked on stage. Recent proof has surfaced, dismissed the initial claims, and adding a new twist to the story.
During the 96th Academy Awards, John Cena, the renowned wrestling legend turned actor, was responsible for presenting the award for Best Costume Design.
John Cena was introduced to the stage by the event's host, Jimmy Kimmel.
Kimmel playfully referred to a historic incident that occurred at the 46th Academy Awards in 1974.
When David Niven was in the middle of introducing Elizabeth Taylor, there was a nude man, a streaker, who ran across the stage.
Reflecting on the past, Kimmel humorously asked the audience "What if a nude man ran across the stage today?"
As he made his way onto the stage, he appeared without any clothes and just had a large envelope covering his private area and a pair of Birkenstocks.
The audience was left astonished, believing that Cena had indeed bared it all in a bold and unexpected move: being naked on the Oscars stage.
"Honestly, you should feel shame right now for suggesting such a tasteless idea. The male body is not a joke," John Cena said.
The WWE legend then emphasized the importance of costumes in any case.
After receiving help from the host, Cena opened the envelope and announced that "Poor Things" had won the Best Costume Design award.
At the end of the nominee montage, Cena wore a toga made from an Oscars stage curtain, ensuring he was properly dressed for the rest of the ceremony.
However, it has now been revealed that the entire incident was carefully prepared and that Cena was not completely naked on the Oscars stage.
Recently, backstage photos have emerged showing Cena wearing a discreet "most pouch" to cover his 'private area.'
The photos have left people with a burst of laughter when demonstrating the meticulous attention to detail from the team behind the prank, ensuring that only what needed to be covered was concealed.
The revelation of Cena's prank has garnered mixed reactions from viewers.
Many have praised the actor for his commitment and comedic timing, applauding his ability to sell the gag convincingly.
